Letra da Música Right On de The Roots

(hit it!)

We should shine a light on
A light on
And the book I write on, write on
It was right on

We should shine a light on
A light on
And the book I write on, write on
It was right on

Yo, I try to get it how I live it
A lotta people counting on me kinda like a digit
It's a cold world, I'm not frontin' like it isn't
It's no time for comin' up shorter than a midget
Ya'll know imma raise the bar though, like Briggitte
You see there a star go, don't blink, you might miss it
It's precious cargo you gotta be strong to lift it
The light comes in different types be more specific
Shit, I'm black thought, what could be more prolific
For this love I go above and beyond the limit
I told ya'll I'm above and beyond the gimmick
I get into your head and spread like a pandemic
I never put myself in a race I can't finish
I'm well grounded founded on the same premise
As any man with a hitlist, its bout business
Yo, can a brother get a witness?
Dig it.
Right on.

We should shine a light on
A light on
And the book I write on, write on
It was right on

We should shine a light on
A light on
And the book I write on, write on
It was right on

We should shine a light on
A light on
And the book I write on, write on
It was right on

aight--(aight, yeah)
Okay I'm above and beyond hot
My measurement in watts
Time rate and flow of energy
Ain't never gonna stop
Pressure's on I won't pop
Microphone I won't drop
Gemstones, niggas cop ain't shit
If i ain't in the spot
Its the Orion that I hop
The new star to hip
I shine a light for the future
Saw my presents to give
It's evident I'm heaven sent
With Thomas Edison elements
Reverence for what I represent
To show my benevolence
This is Dilly,
I'm rapping for the art of the city
Came from southwest Atlanta,
Gave my heart to the city
When slugs fly, thugs cry
Cause every part of it is gritty
Niggas shootin up the club
Like they party with Diddy
You get the diggy
I put my incandescence to fluorescence
And in essence
I can front wit childs energy per second
I put em on the lessons
While I'm smokin all the blessings
The switch hitter like Pete Rose
Right in possession
Right on...

We should shine a light on
A light on
And the book I write on, write on
It was right on

We should shine a light on
A light on
And the book I write on, write on
It was right on

(Take it to the very top)
(I'm gonna do a snare roll)
